2018 Forwards

[Yoda_]

Any Saints fans willing to sell me Acres over Petracca? Somehow ended up with Crozier and need to upgrade him to one of those two.
Is this Blake's break-out year?

Have Petracca

Looks like blowing a game apart every game so far but hasn't done it yet but is still pulling in 90's.


Acres looks the goods and is doing well in an average side. Could go either way

Will Taranto lose midfield minutes with the small forward crisis at GWS?

Could be this years Oliver.

Both Top 5 picks who averaged 66-68 in their first year and started the second with a bang and lots of mid minutes.

Taranto plays a much more outside game, but has a great look about him.

 

[blackshadow]

Taranto low key a chance at top 6 forwards.

Average of 107 SC so far.

Averaging 27 touches and 7 tackles playing midfield. 12 and 13 contested possessions in his 2 games is healthy. Scully done for the season so will get even more midfield time especially with Greene back this week. Plays for one of the most SC friendly teams in the league. Has about 4 other guys in the midfield that'll get more attention than him. Showed form in JLT2 with a 21 touch 6 tackle game which earned him 96SC so he's strung together 3 20+ disposal 5+ tackle games in a row which he only accomplished 2/14 games last season.

Very good signs early. Good preseason, Cameron is backing him in with solid midfield minutes. Looking at Lobb -> Taranto due to Lobb giving away a lot of free kicks in the ruck so far, just doesn't look a natural ruckman.

At the very least he's looking like a 95sc 22 game player which is excellent for 365K

I like the Taranto pick too.

Great POD and a bargain at his price.

I'm really warming to TT too and currently have brought him in for Menespudda, the only concern I have is with Hopper coming back into the side will that mean a marked reduction in midfield time for TT.

I feel like Taranto will play more forward this week with Greene still out and Giles-Langdon out then get back to more mid time when Greene is back in.

Hooper rotate through the mid a fair bit? Taranto has earnt that spot at this stage but can he keep up the 10-12+ contested possessions per game?

 

[astro_toby]

Thoughts on Dalhaus? has this guy hit the shit fan or what?

 

[molo80]

Garlett or Darcy Fogarty on my bench this week?

Same reason i warned everyone against him on here. He'll play largely forward this year, we won't like his disposal enough in the guts unless Mclean gets injured.

Fogarty I imagine considering he's not playing

Come on bs, there's only one TT that us North fans should be warming to.

I've got about 400k left.
My forward line is: Buddy, Billings, Gray, Devon, Lobb, Fritsch, Garlett, Langdon.

If I was to trade out Langdon (not sure I will yet) who should it be - Heeney? McLean? Taranto? A rookie correction (Ryan?)

Heeney.

Will be this years highest scoring forward.

Get him in now.....

Interesting no-one is discussing Hogan in his new role starting at centre bounces.

Might bring him in for Lobb - couldn't be any worse.

So happy I stayed away. As soon as the teams were named there was alarm bells everywhere.

 

[cheeseypizza]

Are McLean, Hogan and Gray all playing mid this season?

 

[Andrew Birch]

McLean - yes
Hogan - a little
Gray - played midfield the week before, but played forward on Saturday so 50/50?

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Wallis is a good alternative if you don’t want McLean. Scores very well when Liber doesn’t play.

There's a major F K ups and regrets thread somewhere.
Its quite popular for most of us.

You've certainly got a golden ticket in

 

[Axly]

So who's getting on Hogan?
If not in this week, is he too out of reach at ~$500k ?!
Is he the real deal?!

I'm not sold
scored 79 in a close loss, then had 2 big scores in matches vs two of the worst teams in the competition
gotta see more

 

[Deliverance]

McLean is gonna be a top six forward.
